Nah, Lae’zel is just horny.

It’s kinda funny how bitchy she gets if you turn her down.

Thank you, sir; I’d saved that a while back for a comment and couldn’t find the original.

I hated X because I found most of the characters sans Auron and Lulu to be incredibly obnoxious.

X-2 just made those problems worse by largely getting rid of the few characters I could tolerate, and somehow making Rikku even more annoying.

It says something about how good the combat was in those games that I managed to power my way thru X and a fair chunk of X-2 before it just got to be too much for me.

I hate X-2 with the burning fury of a thousand suns, and I’ll still praise the combat.

Thing is, all the other major manufacturers are just as bad or worse.

As a PC technician, HP still somehow has the best service and support, which speaks volumes about how bad everyone else is. Dell’s support tools are a generation behind HP’s, and Lenovo’s build quality is atrocious. Not to mention Lenovo’s technician support is so badly fragmented and poorly run, they default to having the customer send the device in for repair and avoid sending an on-site technician just so they can avoid dealing with technician support. Speaking from personal experience, getting to the right person when I have a problem or need to order additional parts is like pulling teeth, and even if I manage to reach someone, they’re usually equal parts incompetent and unhelpful.

And Apple doesn’t even want to service their stuff.

These days, you have to pick your poison.

Do it.

See what happens.

I’ve been getting a lot of mileage from this.

Man, Camellia’s arc is a pretty twisty one, and she’s probably the most fascinating party member in Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous. If you’ve finished your fifth playthrough of BG3 and are hungry for a different flavor, WotR is an easy recommend.

TikTok isn’t doing anything that any other major social media company isn’t also doing. The only difference being that TikTok is owned by a Chinese company, and not a US one.

Just banning one app does little to resolve the overall privacy and information nightmare that social media is.

Do you like fantasy? Check out Frieren: Beyond Journey’s End; it’s what recently got me to watch anime. It tells a great story with compelling characters, has some awesome action scenes, and keeps all of the things I hate about anime (excessive melodrama and fanservice) to a minimum.

It’s just a great show, and not merely a great anime.

I’ve always said that the Railjack in Warframe really deserved to be its own game instead of a shoehorned game mode.

This looks like what that idea could be. Just being able to play Sea of Thieves IN SPACE!!! is a home-run of an idea.

Definitely has some Rogue Trader energy to it.

But they may stay home, which is just as bad.

old.reddit is probably going to be on the chopping block, too. I only go for niche communities these days, but I’m gone for good once old.reddit is gone.

No, we’re not fine with being unbelievably screwed, but the ruling class has decided that this will be normal, so we might as well make dark jokes about it while we scream into the void.

I imagine this is only for consumer-grade printers. HP’s business-class devices are usually purchased under a contract.

I admit, I really preferred how Owlcat’s Pathfinder games handled this, where skill checks are automatically taken by the party member with the highest relevant skill. Say, if a Persuasion check appears in dialog, the roll is made by the character with the highest Persuasion skill, without having to swap to that character. If a Strength or Agility check appears, the character with the highest stat makes the roll automatically.

There should at least be an option for this in BG3.

I already assumed I’m being monitored on my work devices, and write my emails and chats like they’re going to be used in a deposition.

If I’m shit-talking someone, it’s in person or on my personal device.
